Leave the articles of impeachment, take the cannoli. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday likened President Trump’s request for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to “do us a favor” to coded mob lingo by invoking the new Martin Scorsese flick “The Irishman.”“Do me a favor?” said Pelosi (D-Calif.), altering Trump’s quote in closing her speech on the House floor, a short time before she signed two articles of impeachment against the president.Then, taking even further liberty with the White House-released transcript of the call between Trump and Zelensky, Pelosi said, “Do you paint houses too?

I can explain why Pelosi waited almost a month to file the articles of impeachment in the Senate. The gold embossed signing pens were back-ordered.

Sounds about right, coming from the mob princess.

Keep hearing that Pelosi is tough, smart, experienced, strategic thinking - yada, yada, yada. Then you look at something incredibly stupid like this.

Leave it to deep-thinking 'Rats to quote deep sources like contemporary movies in support of their political antics.

This just confirms something I have always suspected about dems. Rob Reiner writes their “clever,” one-liner, bumper-sticker slogans and comebacks.

I was thinking, if they hang anything on Trump, what is to stop Republicans from going after Obama as the leader of the coup, especially when they have the evidence to put him on trial? Like I said...just thinkin’!

Given how her family ran Baltimore back in the day, I would say she would be on familiar ground with Mob talk. But to insult our intelligence this way is just ridiculous. The Mob Princess known as Pelosi is setting a precedent that even she has no clue how bad it is.
Rudy and Trump are gonna fight this, and I suspect that Jay Sekulow has had a hand in setting up the defense as well. I would not bet against Jay and Rudy. Two of the most impressive legal minds out there right now. If there is one thing that Roy Cohn taught Trump back in the day it is how to pick your battles, and how to spot great legal talent.

I want an investigation into whether Pelosi used taxpayer money to buy all those pens she handed out! That would be fraud, waste and abuse!

Actually, her entire speech was bizarre. I know how tyrannical the Leftist bubble is when it comes to keeping their members speaking with one voice and without dissension. But I wonder what the sycophants in the press actually think about Pelosi. They likely aren't even able to express their opinions of her to their friends and cohorts, but they've got to think she's either senile or going senile.

Like Hillary Clinton, Pelosi is not very good at comedy and in the brilliance department dumb as a door knob again like Hillary.
Both of these buffoons are vindictive, mean, ugly and power hungry but the house will drop on both these witches in the end.

Miss Lube Rack 1956 is ready for the asylum. Can we invoke a 'Red flag law' and have her locked up?

After a month of rewrite and rehearsals, Nancy finally rolls out the production. Cue the orchestra please.
Overture,
Curtain, Lights.
This is it,
The Night of Nights!
No more rehearsing.
And nursing our parts.
We know every part by heart!
You can sing the rest yourselves. Thanks to Warner Bros. and Bugs Bunny.
